Ryan B. Cohen, Teena Nerwal, Stephen Winikoff, Matthew O. Hubbard
De Garengeot hernia is a rare phenomenon describing the migration of the appendix into a femoral hernia sac. Many repair strategies have been described although an open inguinal approach with suture repair is the most common technique. Despite strong evidence that mesh limits recurrence, most forgo mesh use in the presence of appendicitis for fear of contamination. We report a case in a 68...... hiện toàn bộ
